Directions of Use
It is important to take care to wipe the brush with a tissue before using it, as this will prevent the product getting onto your skin. Brushing outwards from the part of the eyebrow closest to your nose will ensure that your brows are evenly coated. Please take care not to use too much, as this will cause the eyebrow color to clump.Main Ingredients

Review:
I purchased this out of curiosity and because at the time, my hair was light brown/blondish and I wanted my brows to match. It's weird to have full black eyebrows when my hair is much lighter. Since I purchased this Canmake one, I also bought the Cosmagic one later to try. This review is long overdue but I thought I'd share anyways =)

The packaging is compact and can easily fit in make up pouches. It's in the form of any mascara brush so it's super easy to use. I tend to wiggle it to coat my natural eyebrows. It's recommended that you clean or wipe it clean after every use.

At the time, they didn't have any lighter shades and I felt that Yellow Brown would be most fitting for my eye brows. I think that this product does work except that also means you need to put in A LOT of effort. I need to first to a light wiggle to coat my eyebrows, while it's still wet, I apply eyebrow powder or eyeshadow powder to fill it in. It's not very pigmented to cover my dark nature eyebrow hair. Then, I re-coat it again to cover my natural colour some more. To make my eyebrows perfect, it takes tons of effort compared to the Cosmagic one.

Wow, I just noticed all my wrinkles in the swatch photo >.<

WIth just one coat, the product doesn't really cover my natural brow color (black) and the waterproof ability is not so good - especially in sea salt water. This is only good for those who needs a light lift of colour, or those who don't have pigmented, full eyebrows like mine.

In terms of price, I think that it's the best price in Japan and Hong Kong.
